    ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate the relationship between supplier selection and contract performance in local governments, focusing on Mbale District. The research employed a cross-sectional design, with a study population of 45 and a sample size of 40 respondents. Specific objectives included examining the relationship between problem identification and contract performance, assessing the relationship between criteria formulation and contract performance, and analyzing the relationship between supplier qualification and contract performance. The findings revealed that problem identification significantly influenced contract performance, with a p-value of 0.042. Additionally, criteria formulation was found to have a strong correlation with contract performance, with a p-value of 0.031. Supplier qualification also showed a significant relationship with contract performance, reflected by a p-value of 0.028. The study concluded that effective problem identification, well-formulated criteria, and thorough supplier qualification are critical for enhancing contract performance in local governments. It recommended that local governments should prioritize these factors to improve contract outcomes, focusing on refining these areas to achieve better performance.
